Pampered Beast: Frail Beauty with Many Children Brings Blessings

Chapter 73 You borrow it so easily?

News of the beast tide is transmitted every beast hour. Many high-level, ranged combat beastmen cooperate with the beastmen and flying beasts who are scouting the teleportation points, and like a group of tourists, they try to be the first to harvest the high-level berserk beasts in the beast tide!

The massive beast tide was still gathering, with not only those running on the ground but also many flying ferocious beasts in the sky, a dark, oppressive mass that blocked out the sunlight.

The pressure they brought was also considerable. In addition to harvesting high-level berserk beasts, Gong You aimed his crossbow at these flying berserk beasts. Even though he used the law of time to continuously kill the beasts, the amount consumed by the entire beast horde was still a drop in the ocean!

They had stored quite a few crystal cores in the space. Gong You rode on a white-beaked eagle beastman, moving rapidly while shooting and killing as the beast tide surged forward.

The beastmen felt that there wasn't enough time. Soon, two days had passed, and their spiritual energy had been exhausted four or five times. The defensive fortifications around Puchang City were almost complete.

The area around the Beast City had been cleared of wasteland, but now trees have been planted tall both inside and outside the city, so flying beasts no longer have any advantage in attacking the city...

Si Shuo sat on the platform for two days. After the square was filled with animal skin packages, she stopped taking them out. She looked like she was playing chess and chatting with the Beast God, but she was anxious about Gong You and Ji Liang.

Fortunately, she paid a hefty fee to be able to watch the live stream through the system, keeping track of the beast husband's safety and the entire beast tide situation.

Amidst everyone's tense and agonizing anticipation, the beast tide finally reached the first line of defense!

Besides various defensive fortifications, there were also advanced ranged orcs waiting there, accompanied by other orcs with teleportation abilities who were ready to open passages and leave at any time.

Even through the screen, Si Shuo could feel the terror of the beast tide, like a surging mudslide, making one's legs go weak at the sight of it, or instinctively wanting to turn around and run away.

Fortunately, the orcs were experienced fighters, and their eyes were resolute as they waited for the beast tide to arrive.

The orcs put extra care into building their first line of defense, with layers of thick, deeply embedded stone walls topped with poisoned metal spikes.

The more forcefully the berserk beasts rammed into the wall, the deeper the spikes penetrated their flesh. The venom circulated in their blood, and one row of beasts disappeared from their spot, while the next row of beasts, still with bloodshot eyes, continued to charge forward.

The first wall held out for only five waves before collapsing. The walls that followed could only hold out for six or seven waves.

The orcs have the most earth and wood elemental abilities, and they built long and thick walls, a total of ten city walls!

Beyond that was a maze with walls still studded with poisoned metal nails, and orcs guarding the entrance to the maze, setting traps outside.

The maze is designed like an inverted bottle, with an extremely wide entrance that swallows up almost 80% of the main force of the beast tide. The more passages you go in, the more the berserk beasts in the tide are diverted for the first time.

The walls of this maze are extremely thick, equivalent to the thickness of five or six city walls from before!

In addition, Si Shuo had selected some plants with calming, soothing, and intoxicating effects in the previous two days.

The females collected some, the wood-type beastmen catalyzed some, and they were ground into powder and sprayed along the beast tide by the flying beasts.

The berserk beasts couldn't run at all in the winding maze, and they pushed and shoved forward in frustration.

Unlike traditional mazes with only one exit, their mazes have an exit for every path, so there is no situation where ferocious beasts are blocked and unable to get out.

After being combed through with poisoned steel nails, the number of packages in Si Shuo's temporary storage compartment increased rapidly, and the beast tide decreased by a full ten percent at a visible speed!

After emerging from the maze, the ferocious beasts fell into a water pit mixed with many poisons, stepped on poisoned steel nails, entered another maze, and then encountered the city wall.

After they breached the city walls and gathered, they trampled on the vines scattered on the ground and were then roasted by fire... Nearby, there were also high-level orcs attacking from a distance. When the beast tide arrived, they would run to the next defensive fortification with the orcs who had scouted the location and teleported there.

By the time the beast tide reached the city after passing through three or four defensive fortifications, it had been reduced to nearly 60% of its original size, which is equivalent to the size of four or five medium-sized beast tides.

The defensive fortifications outside the city were not limited by the number of orcs who could scout and teleport. They were built with the full strength of the city's orcs. One maze after another confused the berserk beasts. With the spraying of plant powder, the redness in the eyes of some of the beasts gradually faded.

By the time the ferocious beasts had overcome all obstacles and reached the city wall, the beastmen were already rubbing their fists together, waiting for them.

The four males of Ji Liang took turns guarding Si Shuo's side, while the other three males joined in the hunt for ferocious beasts, hoarding animal hides and crystals for their females.

When the last berserk beast was killed, everyone was still in a daze. If the beastmen who had been advancing with the beast tide hadn't witnessed it with their own eyes, who could have imagined that a beast tide so powerful that it made them feel fear and despair that they would run away as soon as possible would be completely wiped out!

Still feeling a bit unsatisfied, everyone gathered at the Beast God Statue Square, staring enthusiastically at Si Shuo and his companions.

Zhile, Jiliang, Xuchi, and Gongyou all stared intently at their little females.

Si Shuo coughed softly, stood on the high platform, holding the Purple Sound Conch with amplifying effect, and solemnly said:

"Although everyone won this time and repelled the beast tide, the Beast God expended a great deal of divine power to save Puchang City and collect and purify the ferocious beasts. It is unknown how long it will take for him to recover."

The Beast God can help us this time, but he can't help us a second time!

Without his help, no matter how many defensive fortifications we build, the corpses of the ferocious beasts pile up, and the city walls, water pits, vines everywhere, and even the maze all become useless.

Therefore, we can no longer afford to take chances. We must remember that the spring hunting tradition is a balance that our ancestors painstakingly developed through countless trials and tribulations!

The orcs nodded vigorously. After the joy of victory came a deep sense of relief and lingering fear. If the Beast God hadn't intervened to save Puchang City, a city of blood would have awaited them.

Si Shuo only mentioned these two things, and he believed that the beastmen had learned a profound lesson this time and would never dare to imitate him again.

The development of any civilization is a gradual process. Reckless advancement without considering one's own circumstances will not bring glory and honor, but may also lead to destruction.

"Alright, now it's time to reward those who have contributed. Our Beast God has already marked the names of the slayers on the packages, and I will distribute them one by one," Si Shuo said cheerfully.

The orcs then cheered and became excited.

The Beast God remained silent for a long while, then said, "Saintess Si Shuo, you seem to be using my name quite easily?"

Si Shuo chuckled and said, "Beast God, Puchang City has a statue of you enshrined there. They believe in you. Can you bear to watch Puchang City be destroyed?"

If I didn't invoke your banner, the orcs wouldn't believe me at all. I'm just using your authority to my advantage, further solidifying your position in the hearts of your orcish people!
